Varana Hotel Krabi

This place is amazing! The Olympic sized pool is spectacular. Breakfast was perfect with a beautiful view Highly recommend. It has to be the best hotel in the area

The hospitality of the staff was incomparable. Whenever we made a request, they accommodated quickly. The views were amazing from the room and the activities were incredible

Excellent

Fake advertising!! The hotel is not on the beach and does NOT have direct access to it despite claim on it web site and on Expedia including fake photo trying to prove otherwise!!( pics of beach from a business they collaborate with. You have to cross a busy road to get to the beach !! 2) there are no elevators to reach the reception or the breakfast restaurant!! 3) they make you wait when you check out until they have checked the room to make sure you did not take the TV with you ?!! And forcefully tell you to wait “ because that is the procedure “!!! Definitely not a 5 star property and should not be allowed to make false claims as being on the beach !!!

Great hotel in a great area that’s central for seeing all the sites in krabi.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Varana – a hotel that truly exceeded our expectations. The entire experience was marked by calmness, quality, and exceptional hospitality. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful throughout our stay, and we felt genuinely well taken care of from beginning to end. The fitness facilities are some of the best I’ve seen at any hotel, and the food was both healthy and delicious. It was especially impressive that much of the food is produced on-site – fresh, local, and sustainable. Breakfast was varied and beautifully presented, with plenty of healthy and tasty options. The pools were clean, beautiful, and relaxing, and the Beach Club connected to the hotel was a cool and stylish spot with a great vibe and high standards. A big thank you to the entire team at Varana

Varana Hotel Krabi has the potential to be a wonderful hotel. However, during my stay there it was evident that the hotel was simply not ready -- not that the hotel rooms are not fully built (they are and they are wonderful), more so the activity areas. Multiple fitness/health areas were still under construction, there were three different schedules for activities that never matched, some of the "fitness courses" were either closed or had not been built, and every activity had an additional fee if you wanted to partake. While I understand that this may be because I visited during the low season, the lack of a "complete" hotel should have been stated. The hotel is just not ready for visitors who want to take advantage of the different offerings that Varana advertises.

It was brilliant. Outstanding facilities and great onsite food at the restaurants. Will definitely return

Nice quiet location, you are able to relax and not think about work. Food is great on the resort or off the resort. Breakfast is amazing. I had my doubts but a solo half day trip to the outlying is a very good deal and much needed. Great way to see the island at your own pace. It could get crowded with other tourists and having a private boat is nice. Go during off season. It’s not crowded and the vide is very chill. Shout to all the staff and Albert who are patient and want you to have a nice and relaxing time.

Amazing stay, beautiful property, very good breakfast with a lot of options. Beach accessible. Rooms super clean, beautifully decorated and designed.
